A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to interview Lisha Myers, a destination wedding photojournalist who is a new transplant from San Francisco to the Raleigh, NC area. Today, I would like to feature that interview as well as the Lake Tahoe destination wedding of Amanda and Richard, that Lisha submitted to us. First up is the interview.

TD: What’s the story behind Lisha Myers Photography?

LM: It all started when I was in college and all my close friends were becoming engaged and married and [they] started asking [me] to take their engagement photos because they wanted to be comfortable in front of the camera and have the photos represent a true picture of them as a couple. I, of course jumped at the opportunity and I guess it spread like wildfire. Before I knew it, I was taking photos left and right for friends and their families.

TD: Can you tell me about your approach to working with brides?

LM: I love to get that chance to sit down with a cup of coffee and conversation and hear about their story. I love weddings: every aspect of it. My career lets me capture their memories, relationship, wonderful wedding, and more importantly, a sense of who they are.

TD: What is your style of photography?

LM: I try to shoot as natural as I can. I like the raw, uninhibited, photojournalistic feel of photography. I want others to get drawn in and captivated by my work and leave with a sense of emotion and admiration for the couple.

TD: How many people shoot for Lisha Myers Photography?

LM: Our studio is Husband and Wife run. My husband is extremely talented and can always find a shoot that I would otherwise pass up on. Between the two of us, we capture every angle and moment of the couple’s day.

TD: What advice would you offer to brides when selecting their wedding photographer?

LM: Look for a photographer’s style that you just can’t get enough of. Fall in love with their work and also their personality. Make sure you see plenty of work before making a decision and don’t be afraid to ask too many questions!

TD: What is your favorite time of the day to shoot weddings?

LM: I prefer late afternoon, evening lighting for weddings. The light that time of day is wonderful and so romantic. I cannot think of one person that does not look beautiful in that lighting.

TD: Lastly, what is the one thing you cannot start your day without?

LM: Coffee.
